Do you know about an event that you want to talk about? Is there a campaign you have started, are involved in or want to start? Inspired by Marvin Gaye this is your place to tell the world what's going on.

I can't stand the suspense any longer. I won't be travelling anywhere near the library or any bookstore until the end of next month. Someone PLEASE tell me what's on page 55 so I can make a start and not miss out on anything. Take Pity!!!

BTW - please can I be excused growing radishes on condition I do beans and spinach actually follow through on the potatoes (yeurgh, I'll have to clean the maggots out of the bin)? I really don't like radishes and I have limited space. Please?

We have enjoyed lots of peas from the lottie, and potatoes from bags in the garden, and I lifted some from the lottie yesterday. Still haven't started the parsnips yet, but I will so my page is almost done! Do I have to do another page once I have completed??

I have had the world's yummiest new potatoes and planted some spinach seeds as part of my big plan for a winter greens-fest. Beans are thriving (i.e. taking over) but not eaten any yet. I think I might have planted French beans by accident, but close enough...

Well I grew the cucumbers (they were not the type they said on the packet so I was a bit miffed).Fennel grows wild absolutely everywhere round here so you could say I grew it.LOL!

Jerusalem Artichokes are grown locally by all the farmers and as a result are very very cheap (can't justify growing them in the limited space I have). In fact - if anyone buys Artichokes from the supermarket - chances are they will have come from here.

French Beans I will have a go at sowing later as I believe they like a cooler temperature than what we have happening.I might have to wait to sow them at the end of September actually, it's that darn hot.

Tried to get a copy of the Bible in England but it hadn't arrived at the onl;y bookshop I was able to get to - so I've added it to my birthday present list. Sooooooooo can some-one please tell me what is on page 204 so I don't need to wait until July.

Thanks

GreenRosie - you have a lovely photo of green twins in tower mode, a-scrumping cherries from the park - the facing page has the title 'Wild Food'

...... well I have foraged for all sorts of new wild foods and made them into yummy stuff - elderberries, sloes, rosehips, wild garlic etc .... and lots of lovely neighbours let me have their wildfall apples for our pigs - not exactly scrumping but it did feel like it at times
